Yeah, they even stole the land from the Americans so they could live and pollute there :D

nvm

I own an XT Ultra pump and I honestly tried hard to like it. However, I've come to the conclusion that it's in my best interest to simply forget it, until they iron out the bugs (if ever). With every firmware update so far the problems have compounded each other, ranging from not flashing...

I got one, but I won't install it before they release the new firmware. Currently the pump appears to have a few nagging problems. 1) circuit plate temp probe indicates overheating too soon 2) fan overload protection is set too tight and may give you errors without anything being wrong or...

The MacFUSE NTFS-3G driver isn't adequate for HD drives connected through USB 2.0. Due to some kind of bug, or perhaps it's even deliberate, it only transfers data at the impossible slow USB 1.1 speed. The original developer had a fixed version available. However, he had to remove it due to...

The biggest deal killer when booting Windows on a Mac is that it can't write to an NTFS drive, sort of lame considering the way Apple is marketing Windows compatibility.

It could be pretty dramatic, i.e., about 15-20C increase with equal fan speed.

Indeed...the Artic Silver method by laying down a stripe appears to work best. I tried spreading it out well, which resulted in an over 10C temp increase. The individual core temps also lost all uniformity. Spreading it out on my 8800 GPU did on the other hand work well. My guess is that it's...

For whatever reason I couldn't get the HP tool to work. It wouldn't see my USB sticks. As an alternative I can recommend mbrtool. It's a simple util that makes your stick bootable through a format. No additional files required. http://www.marlow.dk/tech/src/mbrtool.zip Confirmed to work...

Over 1.4V sounds a lot for 3Ghz. Have you tried testing with higher MCH, FSB termination and VDIMM yet? EIST and C1E don't really have an effect on your BIOS version. Regardless of setting it stays on. Also, it only lowers the multiplier to save energy without touching the voltage. So...

1:1 in terms of frequency isn't really relevant. What you basically want is to make the memory bottleneck as small as possible. In other words up the frequency to get as much as possible real world throughput of data in combination with low latency. The differences however in actual...

The Nvidia Quadro FX5600 is basically an 8800GTX with a different BIOS,driver, more mem, but lower clock. Suffice to say the potential of the G80 GPU is considerably higher for an OpenGL environment than any 1900.

If the R600 core is slower than the G80, a larger memory bandwidth isn't going to help much. An analogy would be upgrading from a 3 lane to a 6 lane freeway for 3 cars. At full throttle those 3 cars aren't going from point A to B any faster in 6 lanes than they will in 3, regardless of the extra...

If you're planning to OC you may want to shy away from the 1333 FSB versions with a locked multiplier CPU. They may limit your max frequency ceiling due to lower internal multipliers and thereby requiring a higher relative FSB for every speed increase.

You mean like a graph or something? http://geizhals.at/deutschland/?phist=200142
